Well after waiting 2 months to get labs done my Dr has proved to me again that either he sucks or the lab does. The first draws they only ordered hematocrit and the second time I went back only Vitamin D and Ferritin. Getting so irritated with this. I should have just went to a hematologist. I will be getting blood draws AGAIN this week, hopefully they get it right. So after taking iron religiously for 7 months this is what I have so far. At least I know my new iron is working.

Hematocrit: 45.3
Ferritin: 33
Vitamin D: 25

Was supposed to get Iron Serum, B12, Hemoglobin etc but something always seems to get messed up as far as my labs go. Glad to know my ferritin has gone up, 2 months ago was a 19.

Re: My numbers

Sorry about your labs. : / I got my regular doctor to send me to a hematologist and a GI doctor to get to the bottom of my anemia. I hope you get the right information next time.
